Meet the Author


Rick Canhan is an Australian Military Veteran, writer, speaker, and advocate who draws on lived experience to challenge silence, injustice, and institutional failure. Born in the UK in 1959, his early childhood included time in institutional care, where he endured years of abuse by the Catholic Church—experiences that have shaped a lifelong commitment to truth, accountability, and resilience.
